- the resistive element comprises the stack of layers 101 formed by the first layer 110 and the second layer 120 separated by the insulating layer 130.
- the first layer may comprise a two-dimensional material with variable resistance under the effect of an electric field and is intended to dissipate the adjusted thermal power P th
- the second layer may comprise a resistive material and is intended, since it is subjected to an electric potential V g , to impose an electric field on the first layer.
- the thicknesses of the first 110 and of the second layer 120 can be adjusted so that the transparency of the resistive element in the visible range is greater than 80%.
- the resistive material can also comprise a two-dimensional material with variable resistance under the effect of an electric field.
- the resistive element is formed on an exposed face of the support.
- the support comprises two layers, called support layers, between which the resistive element is inserted.
- the support can be transparent in the visible range, in particular the support can comprise either a window of a motor vehicle, or a visor of a helmet, or a visor of a mask.
- the figures 7a to 7e show an example of a method of manufacturing the resistive element in a support 200 provided with two support layers 201 and 202.
- the support 200 is in particular a windshield.
